This is probably one of only a handful of ways that these few parts can be assembled to give this much articulation in such a tiny model - it's this reason that these are so interesting and challenging to build. I can't take credit for this design; it is inspired by another of zizy's advanced frame type micromecha, which reminded me of a mecha ninja. Is there anything cooler than ninjas or mecha? Only mecha ninjas!! w00t!

I'm sure quite a few people are also keen to know a few of the tricks, so check the Compact Frame gallery at Brickshelf for some disassembly and pics of the few critical parts you'll need plenty of in order to create your own.

I've got another mini mech in the lab (slightly larger than this) which I'll post in the next few days or so!
